Ancestor to President John ADAMS & President John Quincy ADAMS

John married Elizabeth Thompson (1594-1676) daughter of Rev. William Thompson, the Vicar of Westbury Parish, Wiltshire for 20 years (1603-1623) and Phyllis maiden name unknown on 10 September 1615, according to the parish records. His parents died soon after John married Elizabeth and he inherited: "The Mylls called Ripond, situate within the Parish of Frome Selwood". His occupation was manufacturing woolen fabric, broadcloths and kerseymeres. He had a very good reputation for a fine product. He is sometimes called a London merchant but that is because he probably had a commission house there, as it would have been the largest market for his product.
——
He died on 29 November 1669 in Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts Bay Colony at the age of 77. He died intestate and the administration of his estate was granted to his wife Elizabeth on 29 March 1670. He was honored with a five mile long funeral procession and buried in the Old North Graveyard, also known as Highland, Cowles-Highland, Cowles Memorial, Highland-Cowles, Old Burying Hill, in Ipswich, Massachusetts. His wife is there beside him, but the graves are now unmarked.

John married Elizabeth THOMPSON. Elizabeth was born about 1594 in Westbury Leigh, Wiltshire, England; died on 2 Jun 1676 in Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts; was buried in Old Burying Ground, Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
